Leonardo DiCaprio as a viking? Does that sounds funny only to me??? Wink |
Strange casting choices always make me think of a time during the run up to the release of the first Lord of the Rings movie,
This was before they had even announced their casting picks for the series and rumors were flying. At lunch that day, I mentioned to my buddy at A&A, who is as much of a fan of Tolkien as I am myself, that I had heard a rumor that Tom Cruise was to be cast as Aragorn...
I'll never forget it. He got the haughtiest, 'offended officer' look on his face, snorted in disgust and muttered with a sneer, "He's no King of Men..." It was one of those glorious shared geek moments, followed by equal feelings of embarrassment and high-five. We found it terribly funny. It is quite possible you had to be there. :)
